Set Rotate Point Shortcut Key(s)

[kadego]

Hi All

Is there a shortcut key in UGNX-2 for setting the rotate point?(Similar to F3 select object in CATIA V4)
Or is it possible to set up custom shortcuts?

TIA

You can list all your shortcut keys (called accelorators in UG) by picking:
information-->Custom Menu Bars--> Accelerators
You can CHANGE your Accelerators by editing
\ugbasedir\ugii\menus\ug_view_popup.men, search for

BUTTON UG_VIEW_POPUP_SET_ROTATE_POINT
LABEL &Set Rotate Point
ACTIONS STANDARD

and change it to something like:

BUTTON UG_VIEW_POPUP_SET_ROTATE_POINT
LABEL &Set Rotate Point
ACCELERATOR Fx <-- whatever accellerator you want to use
ACTIONS STANDARD

It is very important that you assign a previously unassigned value to this. You can unassign another action by editing either the same file or editing ug_main.men, and commenting the ACCELERATOR line out, or changing the value.
